I just started watching and It finally feels right

I can relate to Julie's story so much. I'm a 58yo male, 77 days sober. Never had DUI's, never went to jail but just felt what I was doing was wrong! Some may say I'm not a true alcoholic but I knew I had to change otherwise I was ready to start drinking before work. Fortunately I never hit rock bottom but I could definitely see it from where I was at. The 12 steps are really helping me now. It's a lot of work but I'm determined to make it as a much better, free person. Congratulations to Julie

I have been struggling for years to stop drinking. I have read and seen all the podcasts and this interview - with the 2 of you gave me hope back. Her story and your response and encouragement - thank you for this. You are both incredible.

Girl, this is the best choice I've ever made. It's so beautiful past the lies... I promise you! You've got this and if you need extra support you should reach out to Veronica and her soberful program.

@@AgentOfChangeJulieHuck thank you so much for the reply - you are such an incredible example for me - and I really appreciate you getting back to me! Each little tie back to thinking I could do this too helps so much! I always think it’s for others not me, but hearing your story made me realize it was part of you life and now it isn’t and it’s possible!

OMG; the sense of freedom you expressed and what you said: “Not having to answer to a substance.” What a beautiful incentive; thank you for sharing this! We are potential slaves to our addictions - basically out of control to a bottle? How sick! Thank you for some encouragement! 🙌🫶

@@joyconnell1318 thank you and right back at you! The fact that you even know is amazing and I do believe we can’t give up - I may die trying but we know we must keep trying and we can! Be proud of yourself at your ‘age’ many people never have the courage to look within - you’ve done that! Keep going and I will too. 5 days again today

Wow. There is so much that is relatable in this video. So much. I love Judy's idea to journal about everything bad about alcohol in her life, and that she kept it handy to refer back to it to remind her of how great sobriety is. Her story with its ups and downs, false starts, successes followed by reemergent challenges matches up so much with my own experiences.

Julie - I think you and I have run parallel lives. So many similarities...same sober dates....Thank you for sharing your story. I think so many women struggle and sharing this will surely help someone else.

The mommy wine culture was here in 1995. All of my neighborhood mommies did cookie exchanges while the kiddos were at kindergarten and so on. Wine was everywhere. All us yuppy mamas.

4 years sober, stopped drinking during covid lockdowns. I am still uncomfortable going to social events, I don't feel like im fun anymore. I feel boring and bored. I can't do small talk with drunk people. It makes me uncomfortable plus i have no interest in the small talk. That's my only struggle now in my sobriety.
